Information for bushwalkers from bushwalkers

Bushwalking gear and paraphernalia. Electronic gadget topics (inc. GPS, PLB, chargers) belong in the 'Techno Babble' sub-forum.

TIP: The online Bushwalk Inventory System can help bushwalkers with a variety of bushwalk planning tasks, including: Manage which items they take bushwalking so that they do not forget anything they might need, plan meals for their walks, and automatically compile food/fuel shopping lists (lists of consumables) required to make and cook the meals for each walk. It is particularly useful for planning for groups who share food or other items, but is also useful for individual walkers.

Hi team,
Looking at purchasing some gear and matching a mat with the OR Alpine bivvy.
Does anyone know the footprint or floor size of the Bivvy so I can get a mat to suit?

Cheers

oops posted before I finished the dimensions are:
Length x width at shoulder area/width at foot section x height of front hoop. The bugaboo doesn't have a hoop at the front.
Both outdoor research bivys will fit a standard thermarest easily
The integral design bivy will fit both a standard and large thermarest
